Science and Engineering Library

Home to the physics, astronomy, chemistry, engineering, math, statistics and geology collections, the library also offers largest map collection of its kind in the state of Kentucky with approximately 242,000 paper maps and aerial photographs.

Dedicated in 2017, the library replaced the Robert E. Shaver Library, which occupied the third floor of F. Paul Anderson Tower for several decades. Shaver was dean of the UK College of Engineering from 1957-1966. He was inducted into the College’s Hall of Distinction in 2016.
